Students compete to produce fun, creative videos teaching [|SAT] vocabulary. They’re looking for short videos no longer than 2 min. Once the videos have been submitted, they’ll allow viewers to vote on the videos, and they’ll award $600 in prize money to the video that receives the most number of votes. $200 of the prize will go directly to the winner(s) and $400 to the class or school club chosen by that person(s). To further encourage participation, they’ll give away 1 free [|iTunes] song for every 5 videos a contestant submits or refers (up to the first 1,000 video submissions). MIT began accepting video submissions January 1, but there is still plenty of time to submit your video(s) You can sign up to receive an email reminder at [|http://www.BrainyFlix.com].
